City Winery was the first place we looked at for our wedding reception and after touring a bunch of other places, City Winery was a clear winner, it truly had everything we wanted! The staff is lovely to work with; we worked with both Alienor to start and then mostly Erin throughout planning. They were very quick to answer emails (and I sent a lot) and the planning process went very smooth. Erin made sure that my vision was executed exactly how I imagined it day of and the space looked stunning. The food was excellent, the staff day of was attentive and our guests still rave about what a great time they had and how unique the venue was. Our photos came out amazing too; definitely opt for lights above the dance floor! They gave us a few options for a cake and we ended up hiring City Sweets; Deborah made a beautiful cake and it tasted really good too! We extended the wedding late night to the Barrel Room and it was a seamless after party transition. I can't thank Erin and City Winery enough for executing our wedding perfectly.

I have been ordering wine with Le Grand Triage for over 2 years through work and liked them so much that I decided to use them for my wedding. As a person who is responsible for events at a French company, the quality of the wine is of utmost importance! Eric and Manon have been wonderful and they have always been able to provide us with exceptional wine choices that work within our budget. When it came to my wedding, I wanted only the best! We decided to go with a caterer who let us provide our own bar because honestly, the options we were seeing were $65/pp on top of food costs for awful wines that were sub-par. Knowing that my wife and I are foodies, we wanted our guests to have a good experience in that department and having decent wine was a big part of that. Not only did Eric invite us in for a private tasting, he looked at our menu ahead of time, asked us for a budget range and then tailor-made a presentation on his iPad that explained how each wine would pair with each course as well as history on the wine-makers etc. My fiancée and I felt so special and it ended up being one of the most enjoyable parts of planning our wedding. Eric is really knowledgeable and easy to talk through things and went above and beyond inviting us to come back for a 2nd tasting when we didn't find quite the right fit for the red the first time. We never felt pressured and always felt he had our best interests at heart. The wedding food and wine paired perfectly and we received lots of compliments. We are so grateful to them for making us look good for a fraction of what we would have spent on bad wine with a caterer! On top of the quality of the wine, they are very professional and efficient which makes working with them a breeze. Highly recommend!
